It is with a VERY heavy heart that im doing this,but due to a un expected expense i have no alternative but to offer "Kermit" for sale. 
He is a 1996 (N) 12 valve estate in Loden Green.98,500 miles,Mot till FEB 2009,Tax till JUNE.Ultima spec with pumice leather (in good condition).Body in superb condition although the rear arches are showing signs of bubbling.(Not broken the paint yet).Only known faults are...ABS light comes on after 15 mph.Sunroof motor is not brilliant (another motor supplied) ,tiny stonechip in o/s headlight lense (another supplied).Other than that he is spot on.He,s been my daily runner as well as my show car (2nd place billing 07) since june 07 & i have spent the best part of 120 hours getting the body & mechanics to where they are now  .One thing i will guarentee is floods of tears when he finally goes.Believe me ,if i could kidnap the taxman i would. Any questions...Fire away.Thanks chaps & lasses.....Craig

Craig, Take the advice given on the other forum first and see what can be done, It took you long enough to find this one so don't be selling her just yet.

Are they 2.9s? Also, 12 or 24V? 
Glad to hear you're keeping "Mr Frog" Craig. That is one nice car - you never know, you might win a prize with it one day...
Dave
ps. I wonder how many people will spot that one
